Gaming - Timed-Exclusivity? - View Post

madskillz said:
I find it odd that Sony fans are now screaming bloody murder when last gen they enjoyed timed exclusives - GTA comes to mind - and Xbox owners had to wait years to play the games. I couldn't wait - I bought a PS2 to play the series. Now, at the beginning of this gen, MS talked to Namco about exclusivity. They secured it and it's paying off.

Your list needs updating:

Timed exclusives on the 360:

Bioshock
Eternal Sonata
Ace Combat 6
Oblivion
Splinter Cell: Conviction

Timed exclusives on the PS3:

Haze
Virtua Fighters 5
UT3

All I saw over the Web before UT3 hit the PS3 was how awesome mods in UT3 on the PS3 would be. That has'nt been the case, has it.

I am sorry you are tired of the exclusives going MS's way. Me? I want until the second set of games hits a system.

You made valid points. During last gen, I didn't really pay close attention to the "console war". I just played the games that were available. But now, much wiser and older, I just finded it annoying to have to wait.

 



PLAYSTATION®3 is the future.....NOW.......B_E_L_I_E_V_E

Guidelines to understanding my train of thought:

  • THE METAL GEAR SOLID FRANCHISE IS THE BEST THING TO HIT THE PLANET SINCE THE PS3!! THUS, MGS FRANCHISE >> SLICED-BREAD.
  • Solid Snake shall and well always shove 1up mushrooms up Mario's ass. 
  • Solid Snake shall and well always decimate Master Chief with a flurry of rocket launchers, shotgun rounds, and a 20 minute monologue.
